Zara is absolutely fabulous, and easily our favorite photographer to date (including engagement, wedding, newborn and 4 month photo shoots). We recently moved to LA and I wish we could have had Zara for our previous events as well. We met her just before our daughter's one year birthday party and miraculously she was available for our date! We booked her for two hours of party photos, including a family photo shoot during those two hours, since my in-laws were in town and we really wanted professional photos of us all together. We were a little worried about how cramped we might be, since at the last minute we moved from outside to inside our tiny apartment. Zara handled it with ease and somehow managed to make our place even appear much larger in photos than it actually is! Didn't look cramped at all :) She has an eye for detail and caught such beautiful moments that we didn't even realize occured in the frenzy of the party. She captured perfect moments with all our guests and the candid photos were so fun. Her suggestions about where/how to pose for the family photos were perfect and felt completely natural for us. She had a vision for the day that matched us perfectly and will provide the best memories for years to come. We can't wait to use her again!
